Chango was found by a friend who was driving down the road
and heard a kitten crying. Upon investigation, she found this tiny 5 week
old kitten- scraped, battered and dragging itself by its' front legs. Apparently,
it had been thrown from a car. Both back legs were broken. Fool that I am,
I took him on. Now, at a year of age, he is doing just fine.

Sabre is my best buddy. While with his original owner he fell
out of the back of a pickup truck. A pin was placed in his hip to repair
the broken bone. The pin subsequently migrated out of the hip, damaging
the sciatic nerve on the way. The owners could not keep him inside for his
recovery, and the foot became infected.The infection was so severe, it dissolved
the bones in the foot. When I got him, we thought the only thing left to
do for him was to amputate the leg. The leg has not been amputated, and
3 years later he is doing just fine.
